ABSTRACT
Background and

Aim:

In the Caribbean region of Colombia, the concomitance of endemic infectious agents is a common problem, and coinfections are possible, increasing the complexity of cattle herds' sanitary, reproductive, and productive problems. This study aimed to estimate the seroprevalence of bovine leukemia virus and its association with bovine infectious abortion in grazing Creole breeds from tropical herds in the Colombian Caribbean. Materials and

Methods:

For the determination of bovine leukemia virus (BLV), bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV), bovine herpes virus-1 (BoHV-1), and Neospora Caninum (NC), the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technique was used. Matrix analysis was performed to represent multiple seroprevalence in the same cow. To explore the association between the seroprevalence of BLV and bovine infectious abortion agents, a multivariate logistic regression model was used.

Results:

The seroprevalence was as follows BLV 30.78%, BVDV 33.01%, BoHV-1 12.85%, and NC 8.96%. In the multivariate logistic regression model, seroprevalence of BVDV (OR 10.8; 95% CI 7.5-15.6) and seroprevalence of BoHV-1 (OR 1.8; 95% CI 1.1-3.0) were associated with the seroprevalence of BLV.

Conclusion:

Animals infected with BLV are more susceptible to coinfections with BVDV and BoHV-1. Implementing healthy measures against these two immunosuppressive infections could enhance the hygiene of numerous cattle herds. This study was designed as a retrospective cross-sectional study, which limits the ability to confirm that BLV is the primary infection. Further studies to confirm the primary infection of BLV with an active viral coinfection are necessary and the factors associated with these phenomena.
